The boxing match of the century worth $300 million between Floyd Mayweather and Pacquiao brought him to the peak of his career

Possessing an undefeated record in his career up to this point, Mayweather is a terror to most boxers. Every time he fights, Mayweather turns his opponent into a puppet. In 47 matches, there were 26 matches where Mayweather knocked out his opponent.

Therefore, it is not surprising that he is considered “alone and defeated” in the welterweight division.


The fight between Pacquiao and Weather is considered a fight worth $300 million

But who is afraid of Mayweather? Manny Pacquiao is not afraid of his American colleague. The Filipino boxer and congressman who owns a record of 7 world championships in 7 different weight classes also has an extremely impressive performance record with 57 wins (including 38 wins by knockout). 2 draws and 5 losses.

If you haven’t fought yet, then fight… verbally. Mayweather said: “ I will do my best to make the match with him exciting and dramatic. But besides that, I suspect that he just plays like a snail because most of his matches make us feel sleepy .


Mayweather is considered the “lonely and unbeatable” welterweight

Immediately, Pacquiao had an answer: “He may never have failed, but when he meets me, everything will be different. I will fire him if he chooses the ” tactic of running around the ring “. Even to tease Mayweather, Pacquiao did not pay attention to training and spent time going to Miami (USA) to be… a judge for the Miss Universe 2015 contest.


But Pacquiao also has an equally remarkable record

Adding fuel to the fire, Pacquiao’s coach Freddie Roach commented: ” I know Mayweather is afraid of facing Pacquiao because he is worried about not being able to maintain his undefeated record. If you’re afraid of Pacquiao, it’s best for Mayweather to choose… retirement to preserve his honor .

Also not suitable, Mr. Floyd Mayweather Sr, Mayweather’s father said: ” This match is not worthy of being called a dream match. Because if we were to compete, even though he was older, my son could still easily tear Pacquiao to pieces. He wants to fight Mayweather just to make money, but deep down, he is very afraid of my son .

In a dream or nightmare? In history, there have been many matches that were expected to be fierce but ended in unexpected scenarios. The most typical is the match between two former legends Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield. During the duel on June 28, 1997 at Las Vegas MGM Grand Garden Arena (USA), instead of trying to win with his fists, Tyson suddenly bit off Holyfield’s ear, causing the match to end in a disaster. Dang, argue.


“Super match” Tyson and Holifield ended with a bite on the ear

Previously, in 1973, the match between Joe Frazier and George Foreman at Kingston National Stadium (Jamaica) was eagerly watched by fans. However, this much-acclaimed fight ended extremely quickly when Foreman knocked out Frazier in the second round. Of course, those who spent money to buy tickets to watch it live felt extremely disappointed.


The match between Joe Frazier and Foreman also ended…boring.

Therefore, even though it is known as the “fight of the century”, Mayweather facing Pacquiao is not necessarily a good fight professionally even though it costs up to 300 million USD.
